I very nearly deleted your post unread, given as it was posted into a completely unrelated topic from 2015. Instead I split your post off.

When in doubt, create your own topic. Post in someone else's topic only to add support, not to ask for help. Since the OPs problem should be identical the help he receives should help you.

--------------------------

VirtualBox 6.0.4 is very old. Is there a reason for using such an old version?

The error is here:
1b50.21a8: supR3HardenedScreenImage/LdrLoadDll: rc=Unknown Status -5659 (0xffffe9e5) fImage=1 fProtect=0x0 fAccess=0x0 \Device\HarddiskVolume5\Windows\System32\kernel32.dll: Not valid kernel code signature.: \Device\HarddiskVolume5\Windows\System32\kernel32.dll
It would be highly unusual for the main Windows system DLL (kernel32.dll) to not have a valid signature. I think you have a great deal more wrong with this host than just VirtualBox not running. To be plain, a good explanation is that your PC has been hacked.

I see you then proceeded to post the same question in multiple seemingly randomly topics. This causes duplicated effort and hence is contrary to the forum rules. Please don't do it again.
